Abstract

A system and method for real-time cross-protocol multimedia control that provides integrated content, authoring and control of multiple audio, video, lighting and hardware devices. Users may schedule on the same timeline cues conforming to different protocols, and also readjust the position of the cues at runtime. The different protocols may include industry standard audio, video, and machine and device control formats, as well as network protocols enabling multiple computers to communicate with each other. The timeline also allows users to continuously monitor the labels of the cue markers as the timeline advances.
